Course Content

Pharmaceutical Chemistry is a specialized course that focuses on studying the chemical and biological properties of drugs. It is designed to provide students with a deeper understanding of the chemical properties, synthesis, analysis, and production of drugs used in medicine.

In Medical Chemistry, students take Organic Chemistry, Inorganic Chemistry, Analytical Chemistry, Biochemistry, and Medicinal Chemistry. They explore the structure-relationships of drugs, drug design and development principles, and methods used in drug review and quality control.

Course content typically covers topics such as drug analysis, drug development, pharmacokinetics, drug metabolism, drug release, and pharmacology.
Students gain hands-on experience in the laboratory, where they learn techniques for synthesizing, purifying, and analyzing chemical compounds.

Pharmaceutical Chemistry courses often focus on regulatory issues such as law, patents, and drug safety regulations. Students learn the principles of Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) and Quality Assurance (QA) to ensure medicines' safety, efficacy, and quality.
